Bangkok.. Hot, polluted and loud! Aside from getting over jetlag, I decided to tour the city today on the back of a Tuk Tuk. The driver was with me all day and took me to all the sights for only $20. For some reason he kept insisting I see some sort of table tennis match- he kept on about the ping pong show, but I said table tennis isn't that big in England, but I'll be watching the rugby later..

I'm just back in my hotel now on the Khao San Road- air con at last! I've bought some 'traveller' T shirts and friendship bracelets for the kids and also went to a taylor for a few shirts for $10 each- they're being sent home, so you'll have the check the quality before I get home Mum! Aside from that, time to get some green curry and shrimp one last time before an early night- need to be up at 6am for the flight to Hong Kong tomorrow- which will be a bit like coming home- landing on the airport I spent so much time on driving round in a battered old HK taxi during the construction!
